What happened
Landlord filed for payment of rent arrears totaling $89,773 and eviction of Tenants who had failed to pay rent since April 15, 2022, but remained in the rental premises. The case was initially brought to the LTB but was withdrawn and filed in Superior Court due to the amount exceeding LTB's jurisdiction.
The ruling
The court ordered the Tenants to pay $89,773 in rent arrears from April 15, 2022 to August 14, 2023, plus $5,689 per month or $189.63 per day as occupation rent thereafter until vacancy. The lease was terminated, and a writ of possession was granted. Tenants were also ordered to pay the Landlord's legal costs.
